+2 Handicap and Mental Golf Coach Reveals the
SECRET to BREAKING 80 and
Becoming a More Consistent Golfer
(without changing your swing)

Learn the "Simple Scoring System" to improve your game from tee to green so you can lower
your handicap and play more CONSISTENT than ever.

WARNING: 

If you’re like most golfers, chances are you’re making golf 10X harder on yourself - without realizing it.

But if you’re here, I’m guessing you love the game and want to:

• Lower your handicap
• Play more consistent golf
• Break 90, 80, or become a scratch golfer 
• Have more fun and enjoyment every time you tee it up
• Master your mental game so you can avoid frustration and stay focused during the round
• AVOID costly blowup holes… you know, those 3-5 terrible holes that leave you angry and question why you play the game.

Unfortunately, most golfers think the only way to reach these goals is to spend hours on the driving range learning to:

• Shallow the club.
• Create an out to in path.
• Learn how to use ground force for more power.
• Spend countless hours in the gym to hit it longer.
• Hire another coach or watch more YouTube videos trying to craft the perfect swing.

Which leads to more frustration and less results... 

It’s hard to disagree with Raymond Floyd - a 21-time PGA Tour champion (who nearly completed the Grand Slam of golf, winning three of four major championships).

Let’s break down this powerful quote because it’s the reason you (and most golfers) are NOT shooting the scores you know you can.

Swing mechanics… it’s all anyone talks about. 

At the driving range, on YouTube and on social media, everyone is pedaling swing tips... claiming it's the secret to lower scores.

Driving the ball farther… important for sure, but not the end all be all.

In fact, there’s nothing worse than gaining distance only to shoot the same scores. 

Sports psychology… Another important part of golf, but if your skills and course management skills aren’t there, a great mental attitude won’t lead to lower scores either.

Finally, equipment is important but once again, not the key to scoring low either.

Playing the game of golf is seemingly a lost art these days. 

Let me explain…

Scoring Lower and More Consistently Comes From Thinking More Effectively...

You need to learn how to manage your game and swing YOUR swing. 

Mastering your mental game and course management skills is key to getting out of your own way and putting up a good score - regardless of your ball striking. 

So - why do so many golfers get angry and have too many blowup holes?

One reason is the WRONG expectations. 

Frustration often stems from thinking you should perform better and not hitting your ideal scores. 

But if you’re like most golfers, you think that PGA Tour (or LIV golfers) are much better than they are.

Don’t get me wrong, they’re the best of the best, but they are far from perfect.

Just look at these average statistics from the 2022 PGA Tour season:

• 59.76% of fairways hit in regulation.
• 65.67% of greens in regulation.
• 58.30% scrambling.
• 29.06 putts/round.

These are the BEST players in the world.

And they don’t hit 100% of fairways or greens.

They don’t get it up and down every time they miss the green. 

And they don’t make every putt - despite what you might see on the PGA Tour coverage.

While I love watching golf on TV, it’s important to remember it’s the highlight reel of the best players.

 You are NOT seeing the average pro who hits about 50% of fairways, 65% of greens, and only gets up and down about half the time.

Instead, we always see the 350+ yard drives, pin seeking irons, amazing chip shots, and putts dropping from everywhere. 

NEWSFLASH: this is setting you up for failure on the golf course.

Because as you can imagine, amateur golf stats are much worse - because we have jobs, families, and other responsibilities.

But the great news is that you can still play consistently and shoot lower than ever by being a great course manager.

It starts by having the RIGHT expectations, paired with a strong mental game (to help deal with inevitable bad shots) and a great strategy to score well even on your off days.

Every golfer has 2-5 (sometimes up to 10) shots they can improve WITHOUT swing changes.

Learning to score well is the key to tapping into your TRUE potential.

Learn how to master the mental game so you can avoid blowup holes and have more fun

To hit your golf goals - whether that’s breaking 90, 80, becoming a scratch golfer, or qualifying for tournaments - you need the right mindset. If you’re like most golfers, you have enough skill and are pretty consistent in practice… but something changes when you go the golf course. 

Which probably leads to asking yourself, “Why can’t I take my range game to the golf course?”

NOW IT'S TIME TO MAKE A CHOICE

At this point, you have a choice. 

You can keep playing and practicing like you have been but keep expecting different results. 

This is the definition of insanity by doing the same thing over and over again and the “hard” path… the one where you practice all the time on the range, constantly working on mechanics. The path where you hope to get better and keep reading endless golf content or watching more videos on YouTube University looking for the solution.

OR

You can choose to invest in yourself with Wicked Smart Golf Academy - which is a blueprint to shooting lower scores more consistently and learning how to "play your game." 

You can speed up the learning curve of golf from a +2 handicap golfer who’s competed in 300+ days of tournament golf, including Q-School and a certified mental golf coach. This is the exact system I've used to become a top-rated amateur golfer in Arizona. 

But whatever you choose, choose quickly because your golf game depends on it (and prices are going to increase soon.
